Definitely not accessible for everyone, but I don’t think they’re insinuating that everyone needs to host their own server.

My brother has the one with the apple bundle that was super easy to set up bc it’s Apple, but he can still move the domain if needed.

I’m still youngish (29) but there’s been a definite shift in new hires at our tech company. I know “everyone always complains about the young generation” anecdotally so I’ll give some concrete examples (I used to work with the internal reporting people so I’ve seen the data):

-5x+ increase on cheating in onboarding tests (not hr bs but like actual stuff for the job). Everyone’s cheating. And talking to people who were in school in the pandemic with virtual classes, everyone there was cheating too so if you didn’t cheat you were falling behind

-people coming in at 10 and leaving at 2. Our company had been around for 50+ years and has a generally laid back tech vibe where you get your work done and you’re good. It’s never been an issue. So many new hires this past year were doing it that we had to institute a mandatory 9-5 which really pissed off everyone else who was getting shit done

-customer feedback. Objective ratings of the support from newer hires is lower than we’ve ever had for the tenure cohort

Each of these backs up the anecdotal feeling we have that newer hires aren’t as independent or resilient. That being said, this is a generalization and the majority of them are doing good work. Just less than before

Ahh yea I get what you're saying like not part of his actual name. In military contexts including recruiting they require people to go by their title and name. But it does feel forced when the other person isn't military.

When I was in high school the Marines set up a pull up bar to see who could do the most and I won (cause I was like 135 lbs and a climber) and SSG Harris hounded me every week for the next year and a half. Even finding me in the cafeteria and sitting with us at lunch. These guys suck.
